A 53 years hind-cast simulation with a regional version of the Nansen Center version of the Miami Isopycnic Coordinate Ocean Model (MICOM) has been conducted to explore the nature of the observed seasonal to inter-annual ...

Measurements of nitrate and the carbonate system parameters performed mainly from 1993 to
1997 have been used to estimate the evolution of the concentration fields over the year in the
surface and underlying waters of ...

The surface heat ﬂux feedback is estimated in the Atlantic and the extra-tropical Indo-Paciﬁc, using monthly heat ﬂux and sea surface temperature anomaly data from control simulations with ﬁve global climate models, and ...

The properties of water mass transformation in a semi-enclosed basin, separated from the open ocean by a sill and subject to surface cooling, are analyzed both theoretically and numerically using an ocean general circulation ...

The transient response of the climate system to anomalously large freshwater input to the high latitude seas is examined
using the newly developed Bergen Climate Model. A 150-yr twin-experiment has been carried out, ...

Describes the use of satellite ice data into a working technology for the satellite data sets of the recent past and immediate future. Chapters cover basic observations, modeling, geophysical interpretation, and using data ...

The topographic steering of the baroclinic western branch of the Norwegian Atlantic
Current (NwAC) determines the extent of Atlantic Water and location of the Arctic
Front in the Nordic Seas. In this paper the geographical ...

Nine wadi localities in a hyper-arid environment have been registered in the field and
studied using earth observation data. Branch height, crown – and trunk – diameter, and
indicators of land-use such as present traces ...

A 4th order advection scheme is applied in a nested eddy-resolving Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) of the greater Agulhas Current system for the purpose of testing advanced numerics as a means for improving the model ...
